1. Because modern scientists find the ancient Greek view of the cosmos outda
ted and irrelevant, they now perceive it as only of ____ interest.
historical(key)
intrinsic
astronomical
experimental
superfluous
这里的only不是提示要填贬义词么？ 可答案选了A，为啥没有填贬义词的E啊？

2. Although they were not direct ___, the new arts of the Classical period  
were clearly created in the spirit of older Roman models and thus ____ many  
features of the older style.
impressions ..introduced
translations..accentuated
copies..maintained(key)
masterpieces..depicted
borrowing..improvised
这题陈胜元说因为第三行的and小链接，可直接推理得C...我觉得这说的好像有点不清楚吧。。。B怎么不行？我觉得clearly这个词反而和accentuated更对应

Our highly ____ vocabulary for street crime contrasts sharply to our ____
vocabulary for corporate crime, a fact that corresponds to the general publ
ic's unawareness of the extent of corporate crime.
nuanced..subtle
uninformative..misleading
euphemistic..abstract
differentiated..limited(key)
technical..jargon-laden
这题陈胜元说只有D的两个词构成反义，可是我看不出来这是怎么反义的。。。如果由后面的unawareness of the extent推第二空，那么C D 都可以，但是第一空还是不知道怎么推。。。

黄皮书P140.5:Most people are shameless (      ) where the very rich are concerned,  (      )curious about how they get their money and how they spend it.
A prigs    secretly
B critics  endlessly
C voyeurs insatiably
D exhibitionists  blatanly
E ingrates    selfishly

答案是C，符合的挺好的。不明白的是红色字标示的地方，这个定语从句我有点翻译不通。
求高手帮忙~~

还有也是在P140，最后一题： Although (   ) in her own responses to the plays she reviewed, the theatre critics was, paradoxically, (    ) those who would deny that a review must have a single method of interpretation
A dogmatic   impatient with
B eclectic    suspicious of
Cpartisan  hostile toward
Dcapricious  intrigued by
E indulgent   indebted by

答案是B，但是对eclectic 的意思有点搞不清楚，红宝宝里是折中主义，陈琦说是优中选优，但好像两个都不太对

ivsshemaUID: 2678892

Histocompatibility antigens that attack foreign tissue in the body cannot have been----through evolution expressly to----organ transplantation; on the contrary, they have been found to facilitate many essential biological functions.

(A)    designed.. retain

(B)    produced.. aid

(C)    developed.. enhance

(D)    selected.. promote

(E)    conserved.. foil

答案是E

这个题前半句中不是有个not么，为什么第二个空还是要填facilitate的反义？

哈哈。。。我在langlib看到你这只小狐狸发的同样的问题。。。我突然感觉我懂了这题。。。前面的not conserve是和facilitate反向的啦。。。conserve是褒义词，我也已开始和你一样犯迷糊把它认为是贬义的。。。

陈圣元187页1题
The senator's reputation, though_＿＿by false allegations of misconduct, emerged from the ordeal＿＿
A  shaken, unscathed
B  destroyed, intact
C  damaged, impaired
D  impugned, unclear
E  tarnished, sullied
A正确，我选了B
请问B为什么不行？ 谢谢！


手机打的，未涂颜色见谅！

B就完全矛盾了
既然是被摧毁了 怎么可能又完好无损呢？
though说明是要取反 但是不是绝对的完全取反 而是程度取反
你这题用中文思考一下

1 historical和outdated重复，histortical在这里也是贬义的，有点腐朽的意思
2我觉得要是B项的话，说明新的强调了旧的，可是这肯定是不符合ETS逻辑的。。。只能说是新的建立在旧的基础上；而且第一个空格的根据逻辑关系推出是强调的相同，C的copies更合适
3 C的话肯定是不成的。。。这两个感觉和题干中的意思不搭，而且第二个空明显应该是贬义，可是abstract是个中性词吧；我觉得D选项的第一个词是具有分辨力的那个意思，偏于正态度

108楼
1 那个就是说窥探富人们所关心的东西的意思吧。。。我觉得这个应该没有问题。。。
2 eclectic是博采众长的意思，就是在很多东西里面吸取他们好的

3道题。。。求助中~~

that researchers have been known never to publish
because they cannot bear to bring their studies to an
end.
(A) divisive
(B) seductive
(C) selective
(D) repetitive
(E) resourceful
这道题陈圣元的那本选A，不太明白。。。真的

3. Although the metropolitan area boasts more small businesses than any other region in the state, it ranks very low on the scale of pro-business attitudes: local entrepreneurs have a remarkable ability to ___ an ___ atmosphere here.
A.        confront… energetic
B.        excuse… invigorating
C.        create… enervating
D.        overlook… enthusiastic
E.        tolerate… inhospitable
不知道为什么选D。。。要是后面是负评价的话，其实CDE都可以的吧

2. In the nineteenth century, composers exhibiting ____ skill found themselves ____ as writers by periodicals that afforded them an opportunity to earn money and to make their views about music known.
A.        artistic.. censured
B.        limited.. lionized
C.        remarkable…unknow
D.        literary.. in demand
E.        financial.. out of favor
这道题选B，我想问第一个空是怎么推出反义的呢？？？

提前谢谢回答问题的同学了~~

第一题是一道争议题，A,B选项都有道理。
第二题，我觉得在 it ranks very low on the scale of pro-business attitudes: local entrepreneurs have a remarkable ability to ___ an ___ atmosphere here
中pro-business attitudes 和atmosphere重复，low和空格重复，也就是说这两个空总体表达的是low这个负面意思，首先排除掉的是A,B,E.至于为什么不选C，我觉得答案在首句中 Although the metropolitan area boasts more small businesses than any other region in the state, 既然鼓吹自己small business强，为什么会故意create一种enervate的环境呢？不合理，只可能是这些人忽略了了好的-------导致low
第三题。是问第一空是贬义么？我是怎么推得，一个作曲家需要靠periodicals来afford他们赚钱的机会和让他们的音乐理念被人们了解，那么肯定不才华横溢的作曲家或者是有名的作曲家，只能是平庸的人，要不怎么能靠periodiacls来生活呢。 我是这么理解的

1. 争议，我觉得A对。因为国家档案馆的资料存在分歧性，研究员们不愿意公布他们的研究成果而导致研究课题被终结。
2. 选E。low pro-business attitudes(对创业友好度很差)推断出atomsphere前的空未贬义，排除其他选项剩BE。第一个空描述当地创业家的词语，前缀remarkable为褒义，可以推断出创业家在如此困难的情况下肯定是能艰苦朴素的，要不怎么能生存下来？答案选E
3. 选D。基本逻辑是这样的：作曲家只会作曲，怎么把稿子发表到杂志上的？有一段提示as writers和make their views known把他们的观点让人熟知。就是说能写评论的(exhibiting literary skills)作曲家，才会发表到评论杂志上。

19世纪时，写作能力超凡的作曲家发现他们很受乐曲评论杂志的欢迎——他们在领到报酬的同时让自己对音乐的见解为大众所熟知。

狂汗！！！ 为啥楼上版主给出的2,3两题答案和nanfeng25899 给出的会不同啊？
我赞同第3题选D，按逻辑做的都是正向的词
至于第2题，我觉得A C D都有道理。因为metropolitan area 和local entrepreneurs 存在对立，所以两空要保持一个负向态度，至于后来怎么排出来的。。。就不懂了。。。

constantine124UID: 2703633

我更汗，第三题完全理解错了

solv6868UID: 2244156

额，我专门研究过近几年的填空真题，网上给的答案确实有好多不正确的。

metropolitan area和local entrepreneurs不存在对立，因为在这个句子中local=metropolitan area

:mad: Although the metropolitan area boasts more small businesses than any other region in the state, it ranks very low on the scale of pro-business attitudes: local entrepreneurs have a remarkable ability to ___ an ___ atmosphere here.
A.        confront… energetic
B.        excuse… invigorating
C.        create… enervating
D.        overlook… enthusiastic;
E.        tolerate… inhospitable
选E。low pro-business attitudes(对创业友好度很差)推断出atomsphere前的空未贬义，排除其他选项剩BE。第一个空描述当地创业家的词语，前缀remarkable为褒义，可以推断出创业家在如此困难的情况下肯定是能艰苦朴素的，要不怎么能生存下来？答案选E"

伤到了。。。我发现我看不懂。。。为什么atomosphere前空为贬义就能拍出A C D啊？ A C D两空合起来解释依然可以呈现负向的贬义意思啊。。。我看不懂。。。怎么办啊。。。
